Just take all the time in this world, will be happy to see the game in it's preem condition
While we dearly wanted to deliver Patch 1.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 in the timespan we detailed previously, the recent cyber attack on the studio’s IT infrastructure and extensive scope of the update mean this unfortunately will not happen — we’ll need some additional time.
Our goal for Patch 1.2 goes beyond any of our previous updates. We’ve been working on numerous overall quality improvements and fixes, and we still have work to do to make sure that’s what you get. With that in mind, we’re now aiming for release in the second half of March.
It’s not the news we enjoy sharing, but we want to make sure we launch this update properly. Stay tuned for more information as the time draws closer. Thank you for your continued patience and support.
Keep it going!
Seening people actually being supportive here gave me a relief after all that burning trash in twitter. It hurts how hateful people can be.
The people that bought their product and are disappointed get blamed all the time. But I guess it becomes a moral question when a company is attacked.What we aren't going to do around here is, blame the victims. Nope. Lacks respect - and appreciation for what those who've had to deal with this have endured. If you don't like how CDPR treated you, don't then do the same yourself.
Companies are hacked constantly, steadily. This isn't even CDPR's first time. Simple truth is - if your property has value, it is a target for thieves.
Ok, I can tell you right now this is blatantly untrue. Most companies are attacked constantly, very few companies are actually hacked, even fewer several times.
I, myself, work for a very large financial company. We are attacked daily. We have never lost any data. Ever.
We have several silos within the company and several levels of different databases within these silos. Every silo only has a few key people with full access, the rest has limited access to the part they need. No single person has access to more than one silo, not even the IT guys. We do daily backups to an external partner of our entire database in the eventuality that some part of it would be lost to attacks. The worst that has happened to us is local computers being infected/locked (we do not save data locally). These computers are immediately replaced and backed up from the previous day. Usually we lose less than a few hours of data.
We work with SLA:s to gigantic clients. We do not measure downtime in weeks, we measure it in minutes per year.
Do NOT insinuate being hacked is normal. It is not.
Its like he's never heard about the recent Nintendo leaks. They've been hacked too. Or how about how the prototype for Half Life 2 got stolen from Valve servers mid development and they had to start over from scratch. The game we got is completely different as a result. It happens more than anyone would like to admit, but its rarely this malicious. These particular hackers are scum. They arent just hurting CDProjektRed (there's no reason to take it out on the devs when the decision to rush out the release came from higher up), they're hurting us consumers by rubbing salt in the wound and making it harder for the devs to deliver the game they promised.Well, I have worked in IT and networking for 25 years. Being attacked is normal. Being attacked successfully is common. It happens to schools, hospitals, and companies on a daily basis. There are so many potential exploits these days, all it takes is being at the wrong patch level on one piece of software, running one out-of-date driver, or having one firewall rule that isn't quite as tight as it should be.
CDPR probably doesn't have the staff and resources as your "very large financial company." And the rules and regulations for data storage on financial data are far tighter than the non-existent ones for a game software company.
Bravo that your company has not been successfully attacked. Don't take that one anecdotal piece of data and generalize it to the conclusion that CDPR's situation is some crazy one-off that occurred only because they have a porous network or bad IT staff. If that's your opinion, you know nothing about networked systems and security and should stick to finance.
10 million companies, 500 breaches so far in 2020. Posted above. Pointless post..If that's your opinion, you know nothing about networked systems and security and should stick to finance.
